The party of free speech and anti-cancel culture just cancelled Jimmy Kimmel.

 

 

The only free speech is the right speech...

 

 

Does the orange buffoon not realise how much this makes him look like a total hypocrite??? Does he even care??? 😠

He hates anything that criticises him? Fine, he can have this:

Ironically after being tapped by Trump to chair the FCC, Carr said on social media that one of his first goals would be: “We must dismantle the censorship cartel and restore free speech rights for everyday Americans.”

I think by "restore free speech rights" he probably meant only Nazis would have a voice.

Translation: “We must restore free speech rights for everyday MAGA Americans.”

kingdragonfly: Disney's ABC pulls 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' off air after remarks about Kirk: Reuters
...
Earlier on Wednesday, FCC Chair Brendan Carr had urged local broadcasters to stop airing "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on ABC. He suggested the commission could open an investigation and that broadcasters could potentially be fined or lose their licences if there was a pattern of distorted comment.

"This is a very, very serious issue right now for Disney. We can do this the easy way or the hard way," Mr Carr said in a podcast interview with conservative Benny Johnson that aired yesterday.

Funny how there's always a tweet 🙄

Typical. Once authoritarians take power, all this "freedom" they shout about so much, disappears.

Remember:

• Cats (feral + outdoor pets): ~2.4 billion bird deaths per year in the U.S.
  
  
• Building/window collisions: ~600 million birds per year.
  
  
• Vehicles: ~200 million per year.
  
  
• Power lines: ~25 million per year.
  
  
• Communication towers: ~6.6 million per year.
  
  
• Wind turbines: ~234,000 per year (a tiny fraction compared to the above).

A few things I've seen around the internet today which I feel are pertinent:

First, from The New York Times:

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/obama-condemns-horrific-kirk-shooting-but-defends-the-right-to-criticize-the-founder-of-turning-point-usa/ar-AA1MM6h7?cvid=c2bd44dfb54d41a69f12aa1a058dd4a6&ei=9

If you think about it (and I remember when this shooting happened), I don't recall Obama blaming "the radical right" or anyone like this for that awful shooting. Yet it's perfectly fine for the orange buffoon to point the finger - without evidence - at the perceived perpetrator of Kirk's murder ("the radical left") without a shred of proof or evidence, and his idiotic base just laps it up.

How is that meant to bring the country together?

Next: I definitely didn't have this one on my bingo card for today - Tucker Carlson - of all people - criticising Trump and his "administration" for getting Kimmel taken off the air for his comments re Kirk:

Finally, the orange buffoon doing America proud on his visit to the UK:
